Before installing the fixture, ensure the power is turned OFF. All wiring must be performed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes. Proper grounding is required for safety. This product must be installed by a person familiar with the construction and operation of the product and the hazards involved. Do not expose wiring to sharp edges to prevent damage.
Wiring Instructions
Connect the ACL (Hot/Black) and ACN (Neutral/White) from the FTFN fixture to the conduit with the AC power supply cable. Ensure the ground (Green) wire is properly connected.
Bluetooth Network Lighting Controls (NLC)
All FTFN models are Bluetooth Network Control enabled. To install the PIR sensor:
- Remove the sensor cover.

- Press the sensor into place on the fixture.
To de-commission a fixture from a Network Zone, locate the 'Reset' button on the Bluetooth driver inside the fixture panel. Long-press the button for 5 seconds.
T-Grid Mounting
- Bend the four mounting tabs out to 90 degrees.
- If necessary, use metal shears to adjust the tab height to the T-Grid.
- Lay the fixture onto the T-Grid.
- Bend tabs flush against the T-Grid and use a sheet metal screw to fasten the fixture.
- Use a safety cable (hanger wire) to tie off at the tabs.
- Run the power supply cable through the conduit and complete wiring connections inside the panel cover.
Surface Mount Installation
- Assemble three channels together using screws and angles.
- Fasten the channels to the ceiling surface (bolts/screws not provided).
- Slide the FTFN fixture through the open side of the surface mount and complete wiring.
- Fasten the remaining angles and side channel to enclose the fixture.
Drywall Recessed Flange Installation
- Assemble the recessed flanges using screws at the corners.
- Notch the ceiling drywall and insert the preassembled frame flush to the ceiling.
- If the ceiling is thin, install support cables (not included).
- If the ceiling is at least 1 inch thick, the frame can be fastened from the sides.
- Mount the FTFN fixture into the recessed frame and adjust cables as necessary.
